Mike Scioscia Club Quotations

I think it was a terrific effort against a good club and considering the circumstances of being in a pennant race.

The only way to overcome this is to grind it out. There's no easy fix. We're a good club and we'll get it back.

When you're not swinging the bats well you look flat. Our club was ready to go. We had a lot of energy.

A three-run lead in the Grand Canyon with that club is not a safe lead. But our guys, when they had to, made terrific pitches.

I don't think there's one thing you can hang your hat on and say you won or lost with. The two walks and the ball in center field that dropped obviously were bigger contributors in that inning than the missed call on the check swing. We just set the table for them and you can't do that to a club like the Red Sox. They're too powerful.

The last month of the season I think there were a lot of similarities that started to manifest in our club that did in 2002. I think our situational hitting all of a sudden got back to where it needed to be, we're running bases well. We're going to get a chance to get into our game hopefully, and if it can emerge like it did in 2002, we have a chance to get on that roll.
